Pile foundations in loose sand are occasionally subjected to cyclic loading initiated by the
influence of wind, wave, traffic loads, etc. Such load reversals alter the strength and stiffness …

Gentle driving of piles (GDP) is a new technology for the vibratory installation of tubular
(mono) piles that aims to achieve both efficient installation and low noise emission by …

The existing studies have been primarily focused on the lateral behavior of large-diameter
stubby pile or small-diameter slender pile in sand, with little attention paid to large-diameter …

The results of an experimental investigation on Malaysian kaolin under monotonic and cyclic
loading are presented. In the tests, a wide range of initial conditions was varied in order to …

Abstract Gentle Driving of Piles (GDP) is a new technology for the vibratory installation of
tubular (mono) piles. Its founding principle is that both efficient installation and low noise …

Abstract Foundations for Offshore Wind Turbines (OWTs) are designed following the limit
state philosophy. One of the considered states is the Serviceability Limit State (SLS), which …

Although the load transfer curves (ie, py curves) recommended by the current industry
standards are regarded as questionable for the recently emerging large diameter monopile …

A systematic study into the response of monopiles to lateral cyclic loading in medium dense
and dense sand was performed in beam and drum centrifuge tests. The centrifuge tests …

The monopile is the most common form of foundation employed in offshore wind turbines.
These foundations are subjected to millions of repeated load cycles, owing to wind and …

Offshore monopiles accumulate permanent tilt under long-lasting cyclic environmental
loads. Accurate prediction of monopile tilt is key to assessing their serviceability, and …
